Like Wallace and Gromit but instead of cheese it’s biscuits.

That’s the big word I couldn’t remember. I didn’t know apples were the same but that really makes sense now.
- Comment on Not impressed 1 week ago:
I listened to a podcast recently about potatoes. The ones in Europe are all one species. They can’t grow variants from seeds because they have 4 chromosomes which means growing from seeds doesn’t give the same variant. They are basically clones. If a variant is lost it cannot be brought back, it’s gone for good.
I never knew how interesting potatoes are!

That was a well explained reply, thanks!

Thank you. I thought it was a NAS device. I was wondering what the hype was about.

Had similar many years ago. Was about 3am on a country road. Thought there was a cyclist. Why the fuck is there a cyclist in the middle of no where at this time of night. Slowed way down to a crawl as I as approached. It was a red reflector on a post outside a farm house.

He’s probably happy to accept the sentence and get all this shoved behind him. I bet if the police had looked deeper at other online activities and his pc his term would be much longer.

Are you lonely? Do you want a solution for loneliness? The answer is here. Join a neo-nazi online chatroom posing as a 16 year old boy. It makes sense, perfectly reasonable and not suspicious in any way what so ever.

I wish somebody did shove that old cunt into that suit like somebody trying to stuff a sleeping bag into the carry bag it can’t in. the trauma would be unreal.

They provided some insight to why they think MS didn’t comment. Then agreed with you. I don’t think they were defending MS.
- Comment on 3 Outdoor broadband hub UK 1 month ago:
I didn’t know they did an outdoor hub. I’ve been using a Three 5G broadband hub for a few years. I bought my own Pointing external antenna and connected it to the hub. It works well. The antenna boosts the signal significantly (I forget how much exactly).
The issue I have isn’t the hub or antenna, it’s Three themselves. Quite often the 5G gets slow, as in unusably slow. The signal is strong so I assume it’s an issue with their masta or over subscribed. It doesn’t happen as much these days though.
Because I was unsure when I first wanted one I opted for a monthly contract and not a year. It allowed me to test how well it works before cancelling my existing broadband.

I’ve never had a twitter account. It had no benefit to me when it was first made, whereas now it’s something much worse.
- Comment on Britain’s illegal e-bike boom: desperation, delivery drivers – and unthinkable danger 2 months ago:
I totally agree. I have a legal ebike and make sure I’m safe and within the law. I don’t want to risk my driving license, or injuring anybody.
Ebikes are generally a lot heavier than a normal push bikes. The stopping distance is terrible especially down a hill. If I were to go at high speeds on it then it would be very dangerous. I should think top-end ebike have good brakes but most of the cheaper one, such as mine, do not. I am keen on upgrading the brakes though.
- Comment on Britain’s illegal e-bike boom: desperation, delivery drivers – and unthinkable danger 2 months ago:
They can throw the book at these illegal ebike riders. Unregistered moped, no insurance, no MOT, dangerous vehicle (by means of no MOT to prove otherwise).

Never had this problem. I have that annoying little nail splitting out from my little toe. Gets snagged on socks all the time.

Probably didn’t have to remove that one.

- Comment on Smh being fired for police work 6 months ago:
Reed admitted that at a police station, in front of colleagues, he had pulled down the officer’s trouser zip, inserted his hand and touched his penis before shouting ‘it’s a small one’.
Later says it was just banter!!
I wonder what the situation was. If someone touches my zip I would instantly pull backwards.

No feeling hurt here. Quite the opposite. Again, allow me express my “free exchange of information and ideas” and my somewhat amused feelings; You’re a fucking moron!
- Comment on Why is there steam coming out of the streets in New York 7 months ago:
I’ve never been called a boomer before, I’m far from it. Let me exchange a free idea and information; you’re a fucking moron.
- Comment on Why is there steam coming out of the streets in New York 7 months ago:
Wow this makes me realise why so many movies set in New York I watched in the 80’s and 90’s often had steam coming up from the ground.
- Comment on Why is there steam coming out of the streets in New York 7 months ago:
Thank you. There’s so many people responding with unhelpful answers.

This should be the test all millionaires and billionaires have to take yearly. If they fail, they are no longer fit to own or lead a business.

I had forgotten about the bw TV crackles. The static they creat too and touching the screen with my knuckle when turning it off. The glow which disappears.
I remember having a top loading VHS machine which was pretty fancy at the time. It had a remote control, which was on a 5m cable!
